No audible detonation that I can remember, but it does run lean at light throttle when it's not warmed up. Aside from that, it runs rich most of the time, and backfires on shift sometimes.
I think I found my Boost Leak...

If you pulled those plugs before you fixed the boost leak, I would put in new ones and drive around for a bit, then pull them and take a look.
Like others have mentioned, did you check the piping that comes off the turbo? Mine split all down the back side where I couldn't see it. Boost leaks FTL.

Haven't checked 'em recently, but I will. I've got a hardpipe kit ready to put on anyway, just in case....but I'm waiting for the new IC to get here before I put that on.

It does now that I look at it...but it's not cracked. That's just the seam on the bottom of the pipe...there's a little casting ridge there, and it's just got some grime in it.
That's what I thought Brent....bought a coupler for a 3" that also came with a spacer to mount to a 2.5"...shaved that adapter down a bit, and got the 3" slipped over it and cinched down. Just hope I don't have to do that to the TB side of the coupler....lol.

Hmm... I'll have to measure it when I get home. I'm curious now, it has been awhile since I messed around with it though. I was sure it was 3"

Yah, 3" would be a little too big over the TB.
If you remember when Trent had 3" IC pipes going to the stock TB, they were bigger than the TB opening.
